Mark Ronson and Diplo teaming up as Silk City is one of the biggest DJ collaborations to date. New track "Only Can Get Better" pulsates positive energy and heat, just in time for summer.

Featuring the distorted vocals of past Mark Ronson collaborator Daniel Merriweather, the new track "Only Can Get Better" is the first for the duo as they surprised the world last week with their collaboration appearance in Los Angeles.

Having already been placed on festival line up posters, the duo have saved their reveal for the last moment, and will headline the UK festival, Bestival, later this year.

The two have been friends for a long time, and named the project Silk City after the Philadelphia institute where they used to DJ together in the early 2000's.

With more music to come, the DJ collaboration will make their proper live debut on 2 June at New York's Governors Ball.

"Only Can Get Better" is out 20 July via Columbia Records.
